This very special SCIENCE episode of the Vigilance Press Podcast features guest Mike Olson, designer and author of the Atomic Robo RPG! We talk about the setting, the comics, the rules, and what makes this game special. Mike also gives us a few tips for running Fate for maximum fun value! Over an hour of Science Celebrity Action!

RPG author and designer Brian Engard joins me to talk about tons of cool stuff. In particular, the new release Venture City Stories (link below) from Evil Hat Productions is covered in detail. Want to run superheroes in Fate Core? Check this product out! He also talks a bit about other Fate Core projects, including the Fate Worlds books (on sale now) and the upcoming Dresden Files Accelerated game. Very cool stuff.

Today, Jon Leitheusser and Steve Kenson were kind enough to join me to talk about some great stuff coming from Green Ronin! First off, we talk about the upcoming Green Ronin release of Icons: The Assembled Edition. Then, after waking up Jon Leitheusser, we discuss the latest Mutants and Masterminds offerings!

Two of our favorite Green Ronin return to talk about this year's Green Ronin Summit, and their publishing schedule for the next 6 to 8 months. Topics of conversation include the business side of the summit, Mutants and Masterminds, Dragon Age, Song of Ice and Fire, and more! Many thanks again to Jon and Steve for their time, it's always a pleasure to sit down with them.

Thank you for tuning in to a very special Kickstarter episode of the Vigilance Press Podcast! We're talking with Jack Norris today, creator of Tianxia: Blood, Silk & Jade for the Fate Core System! We're going to talk about who we plan to involve in our stretch goals, a little bit about the setting, the Kung Fu rules, and more. We've got a lot to talk about, so forgive us if we ramble a bit.

(Edited: We've edited the Kickstarter Draft and the podcast to reflect a few changes- The Sifu's Scroll option will be replaced by Backerkit's ability to handle Add-ons easily, so you'll be able to add as many books as you want to your order, as well as dropping the entry level to be a playtester to the minimum backer level of $1.00)

In this episode of the Vigilance Press Podcast, I have the distinct pleasure to talk to Ryan Macklin, editor and game designer. Ryan talks to me at length about Mythender, his free RPG available for download from Drive Thru RPG and RPGNow.com. We also go into publishing via Drive-Thru's Print on Demand tools and discuss his editing work with Paizo, publishers of Pathfinder. There is a smattering of colorful language in this episode, so this podcast *might* not be safe for everyone, if "F-Bombs" are deemed offensive.

Links to his personal site and the Mythender site are below, check 'em out and enjoy his game!

Donna Prior, newly minted member of Green Ronin and front-runner of their new Freebooter program, joins us for an interview! We talk about the Freebooter program, a bit about girls and gaming, and generally how games are supposed to be fun. And Donna proves time and again that she has earned her gamer credentials!

We start this podcast off talking with Rick Jones and Tolly Gipson about campaign creation. The topic is the difference between "Episodic" campaigns which depend less on continuity from session to session, and more "Serial" campaigns which rely more on continuity. After that, and with (I hope) fair warning, we start up a spoiler-iffic review of the recent film Iron Man 3 and talk a little bit about Super Rescues!

As always, we'd love to hear from you what you'd like so we can do more podcasts in that vein. Comment on our www.vigilancepress.com page, and let us know what you like!
